New Orleans Pelicans VS Miami Heat

This NBA regular season game will be played on February 12, 2026 at 09:00 (Manila time, Philippines), with the New Orleans Pelicans hosting the Miami Heat. The user's prediction direction is "Over/Under Cap less than 232.5".

The New Orleans Pelicans' recent game rhythm control is relatively steady, and their defensive performance is worth paying attention to, and their total scoring trend in the game is biased towards small and medium points. The Miami Heat, known for their tenacious team defense and positional battles, have recently been consistent in limiting opponents' scoring, and the overall pace of the game is slow, which is conducive to the formation of a small point pattern.

The past records of the two teams show that the style of play is usually intense, but the scoring is not always open. In recent matchups, due to the emphasis on defensive confrontation between the two sides, the total score has failed to break through the high threshold many times, and the frequency of small points has been relatively high, which provides a historical basis for the prediction of small points in this game.

are for the Over/Under 232.5 market and the odds offered in this game are 0.91. This is a relatively balanced odds setting, indicating that the institution initially judged that the probability of the total score fluctuating around 232.5 points is similar, and it is not obviously biased towards one side, but combined with the characteristics of the two teams, the small score has a certain market support.

Pelicans and Heat both have excellent defensive resources and the ability to reduce the pace of the game. The Heat's defensive execution on the road is key, and the Pelicans may also respond to the Heat's system by defending at home. The 232.5-point handicap is not low, but it reflects the institution's fear of the potential offensive firepower of the two teams. However, based on the recent tactical styles, defensive focus, and scoring trends of the two teams in historical head-to-heads, the total points in this game are more likely to be suppressed at a low level, and the prediction direction tends to be "less than 232.5 points".
